About us

The University of Bath's Campus Services houses over 5,000 students throughout the academic year, and during the summer months external companies use our accommodation for conferences, summer camps, and away days.

The department was created in August 2022 by combining all the facilities teams across the University into one department to support our University strategy, in which strong campus services are essential to underpin excellence in education, research, and the experience of students, staff, visitors, and commercial customers alike.

With over 400 staff, Campus Services consists of a diverse range of teams, including Student Living, Hospitality, Retail, Cleaning and Portering, Security, Postal Services, and Landscaping.

Responsibilities include:

• Cleaning accommodation areas
• Reporting maintenance issues
• Ensuring health and safety guidance is followed
• Acting as the face of the department by engaging with students and visitors

• enjoy striving for high standards of customer service
• love working as a team
• be personable with a friendly approach
